Darker than BLACK – 25 (END)

Inside the Gate, Amber is thankful for Yin bringing Hei here since the other Dolls had all died. She then apologizes because she doesn’t have much time left. Outside the Gate, Kouno and Saitou are trying to figure out what to do when they get a call from Ootsuka of the Astronomy Department wondering what’s going on. She’s scared because the Great Dark Spot is entering its final stage soon, and the Stargazer is laughing again. More fighting soon breaks out near Kouno and Saito as a pair of boy Contractors appear and start fighting the Pandora troops. After watching the boys get hit by a rocket, Kouno comments on how this is like a war, and Matsumoto suddenly drives up in the car with some body armor in the back. They then rush past the troops and towards the Pandora complex. In the control room, the men under Eric Nishijima are powering up the Ring, and he orders the use of all cameras inside the Gate to look for BK-201.

Meanwhile, Hei admits that he wasn’t interested in the reason why EPR fought until he came here, and he now wonders if they’ve been fighting the Organization ever since what happened in South America. Remembering that they had fewer members, Amber reveals that they had known about the Organization’s ulterior motive for a while and that a lot more stars had fallen back then. As Contractors, they had followed orders from their higher-ups, but there came time when they began to change. Those who noticed called each other comrade and shared information – Hei”s sister was one of them. In fact, it was Bai who first found out about the Organization’s plan, but she didn’t want Hei to get involved with it. The reason was because Hei was a human, different from the Contractors. Amber feels that this was true back then and is still true now. Bai had known that it would be troubling for him to choose between humans and Contractors, and she had been hurt a little each time Hei had obeyed the Organization’s orders.

Amber feels that Bai changed, and she understands this because she was the same way. She also thinks that Yin and the other Dolls have begun to change little by little even though they don’t understand it yet. Amber knows that the contract that they’ve made is only the start of something that could happen in 100, 10000, or 100000 years. The reason she waited until now to tell him is because she didn’t think he’d believe her until now. In addition to that though, she thinks Hei would have left the Organization if she had told him, and he wouldn’t have survived until today if he had. Yin suddenly interrupts them to say that that is coming soon, and when Hei wonders what she’s talking about, Amber explains that it’s the thing that will completely erase Contractors and the Gate – the thing that they want to stop. Walking over to the nearly clock, Amber asks Hei if he wants to meet Bai. She then pulls out the meteor fragment and calls it mysterious because of how it returned to its round shape despite being broken earlier and distributed to all of the EPR members.

Her plan involves doing the same thing as back in South America – releasing Bai’s power before that comes. When Hei isn’t sure what she wants him to do, Amber thinks that he should have noticed it a long time ago: Bai has always been inside of him, ever since he thought she died. The electric shock power was nothing more than a part of the beginning of Bai’s ability, and Amber claims that the real power is Hei. She urges him to go see Bai, but for the time being, Hei is more concerned about what will happen to the city. He suspects that everyone will disappear like in South America if he releases his power, and because of this, he doesn’t think that he can do it. In response to this, Amber tells him that all the Contractors on this planet will disappear, including herself and Yin. All except for him. By now, the Pandora control room is ready to activate the Saturn System, and Schroeder starts the countdown. They receive a live image of Hei, Amber, and Yin a few seconds into the countdown, but despite Misaki’s protest, Schroeder continues counting.

A moment before Nishijima presses the switch that shoots the anti-Gate particle, Amber touches Hei’s chest with the meteor fragment. A bright light rapidly expands to cover the entire city, and Hei suddenly finds himself younger and in a yellow-orange hued world where the sky clears into a field of stars. This causes him to start crying because he didn’t want everyone to disappear, but to his surprise, he hears Bai ask him what’s wrong in a scene from their past. She thinks that he’s lying when he claims that it’s nothing and questions why he’s crying. Bai reveals that she had noticed that he didn’t actually want to kill anyone and had been doing things he didn’t want to do for her sake. Hei tries to deny it and say that it’s because he’s the Black Shinigami, but she disagrees. Taking off his mask, she says that her older brother is her older brother, and that’s why she doesn’t want him to try so hard anymore. Huang then shows up to lecture Hei about the same thing, and he cites how Hei’s indecisive attitude had troubled him. Mao is also here, and he notes that this is Hei’s interesting point.

In fact all of Hei’s dead friends are present, including November 11 who says that Hei’s existence being indecisive isn’t like a Contractor. Huang then tells Hei that things become complicated because Hei is a human who pretended to be a Contractor. He suggests that if one side is impossible, then Hei should take both since he’s both like a Contractor and like a human. After Hei is helped back up onto his feet by Nick, a grown-up Amber asks him if this is really okay. She feels that only difficulty awaits him if he chooses both, and the Organization would do whatever they have to in order to go after him. He’d have to kill again, and she notes that he didn’t want that anymore. She tries to convince him by saying that he’d lose the long awaited things he just obtained – such as the starry night sky and his sister – but Hei simply hugs her. Amber still doesn’t understand why since Hei should have always wanted those things, which is why she did all this. However, November 11 points out that it was her who didn’t want to let him go in reality.

Hei then tries to say something to Amber, but before he can do so, she kisses him. She tells him that she doesn’t want to hear any more than that, and she heads to Bai’s side. When Bai says goodbye to him, Hei says goodbye back, using her real name Xing. He also bids farewell to everyone else, including Amber, and as the world suddenly changes again, the last thing he sees is child Amber smiling at him. Everything around him turns into a dark vortex, and Hei manages to make it out when Yin stretches out her hand and asks him not to leave her alone. Hei finds himself back in the normal world holding Yin’s hand, and all that’s left of Amber is a pile of clothes. Time has been turned back so that they’re right before the firing of the anti-Gate particle, and Hei realizes that it was Amber’s intent all along to use the last of her powers. This time, as Schroeder counts down, the image that pops up on the screen in the control doesn’t show Hei, Amber, and Yin anymore. However, nothing happens when Nishijima presses the switch to activate the Saturn System, and power soon shuts down.

With everyone suddenly glowing blue, they see Hei standing on top of some large machinery on one of the monitors. The shaking and glowing ends as soon as Hei grapples away from camera view, and the roof of the control room then gets blown off. Despite this, Nishijima orders his men to prepare for a second shot, but Schroeder tells him that it’s pointless. Schroeder thinks that Hei’s electric shock and the blue light have caused the anti-Gate particle inside the system to completely mutate. Hei’s electric shock is no ordinary electromagnetic wave because it mutates things at a quantum level. Schroeder compares it to a regular person becoming a Contractor, and he theorizes that the Gate in South America was just like this in how it was filled with mutated substances. Unable to concede the loss, Nishijima punches Schroeder in frustration, but he’s then shot twice in the chest by Hourai. This scares everyone else into running out of the control room, and Hourai calmly places the murder weapon on Nishijima’s chest and puts Nishijima’s hands on it.

As he does so, Hourai explains that they were conducting an undercover investigation on Nishijima for violating United Nations law and committing insurgent crimes. Misaki thinks that this is just the leaders trying to avoid responsibility by sacrificing someone weak, and she accuses Hourai of doing everything to exterminate Contractors. She doesn’t have any direct proof, but she thinks that the truth will come out sooner or later, and the time will come when judgment is passed in history. Hourai, however, claims that she can’t prove his connection to the Organization, and he feels that she doesn’t know how big the Organization is yet. When Misaki points out that the disturbance this time puts the existence of Contractors into the open, Hourai says that he’d make everything disappear into the darkness before that happens. Misaki soon feels that she’s heard enough and reveals the tape recorder that was in her pocket, but Hourai then leaps forward and grabs her by the throat. He tells her that the path she’s chosen has only a more violent fight waiting, and he cites how humans and Contractors hate each other.

Fortunately, Misaki is saved when Hei suddenly shows up and sends a jolt into Hourai’s arm. Hei dodges Hourai’s counterattack punches and manages to slam him into the ground, knocking him out. He immediately tries to run back out, but Misaki stops him by calling him Li. Turning around for a brief moment, Hei tells her that there is no longer any man named Li. Shortly after Hei disappears, Kouno, Saito, and Matsumoto come running in, and Misaki has Saitou carry Hourai out since he’s been caught for murder. In the aftermath, she notes that their lives soon returned to normal, but like Hourai had said, Contractor incidents kept increasing. She can’t find traces of the existence of the Organization anywhere, though everyone now knows about Contractors. Misaki also thinks that the time to choose will come in the near future, and she pays a visit to the Stargazer who is now talking about the distant future that no one has seen. Misaki later heads to Hei’s apartment building and is led to Hei’s apartment by his landlady who thinks that he got deported.

Staring out the window from Hei’s window, Misaki suddenly sees Hei’s figure walking across a nearby bridge, so she dashes out and chases after him, wondering if they chose the same path – the path of living together. She really wants to hear from Hei, but he disappears around a corner, and Misaki can’t find him again. Misaki then gets a call and has to break off her search, so she doesn’t notice the black cat and female shaped surveillance spectre nearby.

This didn’t really feel like a final episode to me. There’s just too many things unresolved – what happened to the Organization, where Hei went, what the meteor fragment truly is, what the Gates truly are, who the Stargazer really is, and what Amber meant when she said that this is only the start of something. On that last point, the only thing I can think of conjecturally is that Amber was talking about some sort of eventual evolution from humans to Contractors. There’s not much else that’ll take that many years to happen, unless Amber knows something she didn’t share.

Anyway, I felt that there wasn’t nearly enough closure and conclusion here – it was a bit too open-ended for my tastes. Even just seeing more of Hei and Yin, or Hei and Misaki could have made this better. Now that I think about it though, one of the big problems was that there was a lack of major antagonists. Both Eric Nishijima and Hourai made for pretty weak final boss types, and the episode itself failed to keep me excited and engaged the entire way through. Having said all that, the ending certainly wasn’t a bad ending, and I rather enjoyed seeing everyone gathered in the alternate world urging Hei on. The final message seemed to be all about coexistence between humans and Contractors, and the finale did a decent job with that in terms of Hei being both, and Misaki talking about paths.

Final Thoughts: Darker than BLACK is a show that has a ton of potential, but I just don’t felt that it got as good as it could have. The show had a ton of dialogue where almost every single line was important to the plot in some way – that not only makes for really long summaries here, but it also indicated that the emphasis was placed on explaining things through conversation. My main complaint about this is that I tend to think that it’s better to show something instead of talk about it, and while there were plenty of exciting moments in the series, there were just as many long discussions of the relatively complex plot. I still had fun watching it though, and I do hope that they can continue the series in some way in the future. Maybe the OVA can wrap up some of the loose ends, but that unfortunately won’t be out until sometime next year with the final DVD volume.

So Hei isnt a contractor… :O Begs Tensai Okamura and BONES for squeal or prequel or OVA!! i dont see why people dont think answers were answered in this episode… meh.. i want MORE!! it was a great ending mind you :D

while guys i have to explain something for you. the most important question is “how did Misaki get that recorder in her pocket???” well it was easy hei gave it to her ….. !!!! some might wonder how, but i will tell you. It was because the prof. said that Hei’s power was to materialize things and he did materialized the recorder in Misaki’s pocket. And there is something else. Misaki isn’t a contractor it’s just the reaction from Hei’s powers that gives that blue outline to everybody around him when he is next to the Gate.

“My main complaint about this is that I tend to think that it’s better to show something instead of talk about it, and while there were plenty of exciting moments in the series, there were just as many long discussions of the relatively complex plot.”

I disagree with this statement. Darker than black is a very ‘dark’ anime. There’s little comic relief, and even if there is, it’s not very funny. And when i say ‘dark’, i also mean that this anime is as realistic as a fantasy-anime can be. And in a realistic show, you explain things by talking. Imagine how different Darker than black would be if it was like all the other animes- jokes here and there, with the anime characters suddenly looking like dolls or differently for comical effect like these pictures:

Why is everyone begging for a 2nd season when a good anime has come to it’s end? Leave it as it is; continuations of something originally completed are often not worth it. What would a 2nd season be without all the remarkeable characters who have died so far anyway? Maybe an OVA, but please no second season, at least not soon.

I think that Amber meant that contractors and dolls will evolve to have human feelings and that human will grow to accept the rise of this other “race” or species of themselves. Sad that most contractors had to die in this episode but more will be born and human will adapt( Louis #2, another gravity manipulator).

The meteor fragment, I think, is not a meteor fragment at all. I don’t remember anything about a meteor crashing to earth being mentioned in the show. The scientist probably call it so because the material was never found anywhere but at Hell/Heaven’s gate and was not man made. The Organization is a collective of many nations with a goal to control contractors so their job is not finished yet. Hei becomes somewhat of a super hero. He is a human and contractor and can be viewed as a icon for contractors everywhere. Most confusing are the Gates. Remember the Gates are not actual gate but a region of land that cannot be or is difficult to enter. So the gates to me are merely zones that from which people within the area emerge as contractors and/or attract contractors for whatever reason. Maybe a world wide release of some wave came about with the arrival of he gate. The Stargazer could be a sort of advanced contractor that people early on discovered could read the stars.

Dudew!!!!!!!!! Thanx for the props…. i/teh end Hei he simfl is the devil? No supriz~

Chouga, you are a bad man. Hei is good. The title of the show is supposed to be ironic, you just don’t get it, do you? The way Hei speaks so sweetly to Amber in the last epic episode proves that he is a sweet dear man.

Thank you very much for the detailed summary and the critical comments.I think the sries needed an introductory episode revealing the required basic information.Still, a great part of this anime uniqueness id derived from its mysterious nature….

Chouga is an internet legend for years. People like me search out Chouga never knowing where Chouga will appear next or what Chouga will say. You don’t understand what a great honor it is to have Chouga post here. The key to Chouga is truth and integrity.

The show was great but the end was pretty disapointing, too much question left, no answers about Hei’s relations with Misaki/Yin but this was overally a very good show with a strong beautiful animation and a wonderful OST.
Lots of potential, too bad not enough great vilains and not enough emotions in the final arc (personally Yin’s arc was the most powerful on me)

man the possibility this show had was almost infinite
great ideas (contractors, the walls, not to say AMBER!!)
i’m depressed it had to end like this but none the less
it was a great ride and i don’t regret watching it
as for the manga adaption was … wow
i wouldn’t have even known it was Darker Than Black
if it weren’t the freaking title
i mean protecting a little highschool girl?
wth and not to say this weird character that makes the manga scream YAOI

You think you’re cool ’cause you’re all “rational” and stuff. It was too hard to get the horses into people’s bedrooms, basements, dorms, etc. And the horses have a tendency to trample people’s rights. Not to mention getting horses into the internet tubes that connect them. This is only a partial explanation of why Darker is Lights Out!

Recent interview with the DtB Creator, He stated that there was a definite ending and that he stated definitely weather there would be a sequel or not. It was really interesting to see how things all laid out with the final episode and how that related to the future of the show. Check out all out here:http://www.wizarduniverse.com/magazine/anime/

Darker than black is rather unique in a sense that it uses side characters to take apart the main character Hei to introduce in bits and pieces.. each side character shares something in common with Hei.

For example, Mai demonstrates the lack of remorse and deprivation of common morality/feeling when a person becomes a contractor, The episode with Huang takes the perspective of a commoner and demonstrates the sense of shock and helplessness when Hei had to constantly watch his sister commit mass murder in a chillingly casual manner, and yes Huang’s lover died and his memories were erased, leaving serious likelihood that the exact same thing happened to Hei in his sister’s final moments. November11′s story is used to mirror Hei’s loyalty to his partners.. and the contractor who uses electricity as weapon is a reflection on Hei’s childhood dreams.. Havoc points to his past encounters and the horror on the battlefield as a commoner who feels guilt.. and the list goes on and on.

so even though the series doesn’t talk about things from Hei’s perspective very often.. in the end, especially the last episode, you get a sudden revelation of what Hei feels.. and the more detail you were able to grasp from the humanity touch of this series throughout earlier episodes, the worse you feel in the end. As a result i was depressed for quite a while.

I also think it’s not true that Hei failed to realize his sister’s death until the last episode. When he had a confrontation with Amber inside the Hotel where he activated Bai’s powers subconsciously and heard Bai’s voice through the Meteor’s fragment, he probably knew she was dead right then. And the shock from the realization just made him collapse.. that scene really killed me.

Therefore throughout the journey Hei was always close to Bai in a sense that she passed on her powers, but they were never able to have a real reunion.
The stuff that went on between this brother and sister is depressing me a whole lot.. but there is an OVA coming out and I hope to see them more there.

Decent ending. But waaay too unresolved. I want to know if he ends up with Misaki or there needs to be some type of conveyance of Misaki’s or Hei’s feelings towards each other. Hei simply says coldly to her that there is no more Li. Lame!

Like the blogger said, lots of potential in this series, but so not satisfied.

“It hasn’t been decided yet. We are interested in doing them. As original science-fiction works, they were extremely fascinating. With these kinds of dramatic story lines, I feel that there’s a lot we could do potentially.” – BONES about second seasons for FMA and Darker Than BLACK.

Seems like there’s possibly gonna be another season. I so hope that there will. After all, the OVA was only a little extra comedy story. I wanna see more of this anime!

@cure: same! Im glad that Yin and Hei lived together in the end. Of course they stayed together, it’s obvious! They are the only ones left from their unit, and they are still being targeted by the syndicate. Even in the end, it showed Hei walking off as Misaki chased him, he disappeared just as Yin’s apparition disappeared as well, indicating they are both together; it’s just my theory, but Hei could’ve already evolved into an ultimate contractor seeing as he could now fully utilize Bai/Qing, his sister’s powers, and that it even influenced Yin that she was able to make her apparitions appear into a human shape form of herself.

Seeing as that old scientist guy explained that Hei now had the capability to make humans into contractors, then it would be easy for him to give powers or “upgrade” Yin, making her able to go back like when she was still human, able to express her emotions and have her own will (well she already had one to begin with, all dolls have one- they are humans after all, just those whom experienced tragedy and became like that)

Also although most people thinks of the pairing of Yin X Hei as a sibling-like relationship, IMO it’s quite different. If it was that case, then he would probably been closer to Yin from the start, and it wouldn’t make sense for him to do so seeing as he was still looking for his sister at the time; also, it doesn’t make sense for Yin as well seeing as she’s purged most of her emotions. If it’s anything, then I believe it’s her attraction towards Hei, it is quite a strong theme or point from this series, seeing as almost everyone that Hei interacted changed completely (like Huang, Mao, Mai, Amber, his sister, Misaki, Nov.11, Yin, Havoc etc.)

He affects everyone, humans (Huang and Misaki), Contractors (Nov.11, Amber, that chinese bodyguard guy, his sister, Havoc, etc.), and even dolls (Yin and that doll in the first ep. who died by protecting him – he even said that she was alive). I thought it was befitting that it was revealed that he was human indeed, and that his powers are actually his sisters, infused within him, which I think is also one of her sister’s ability.

So just like Misaki had a natural attraction to Li/BK201/Hei, then Yin would most certainly have one, seeing as she was there by his side all along. This was why she was able to live on, I think. If she hadn’t met up with Hei, then she would certainly remain like a lifeless doll, unable to have it’s own will and emotions. BUT because she met him, and is able to understand his feelings and his past from watching him and hearing about his life from others (such as Amber and Huang), she fell in love him, and even voiced out her emotions from this episode telling him not to leave her alone.

I have to say that this pairing is quite a strong point as well in the series asides from the mysteries, seeing as the indication about Yin’s emotions started earlier in the series in ep.6 when she held his hand when Hei was feeling down after not being able to protect Havoc, also she acts on her own and observes Hei (like from the gate incident in ep.12), the time where she hears Hei calling her his partner and her choosing to stay by his side to remain as Yin, and I thought it was quite an overshadow when Amber told Yin about the Hei and told her in the end to “take care of him”. It was quite an indication that Amber already knew the future, and might have already known that Hei would choose to leave the world as it is, that’s why Amber told Yin to take care of Hei, and it was already revealed at this point that Yin loved him, when Amber reminisced that when she saw Hei’s real smile, she fell in love with him and thought that she would do anything for him and to his smile again, and she mentioned that it was the same with Yin.

This alone indicates that Amber acknowledges Yin’s feelings for Hei, but in the end she still hoped that Hei would choose to be with her and his sister after creating a neutral world – where Hei could see the real stars and those whom have passed away BUT not those who are still living; so it was a choice between Yin and Misaki (still living) and Amber and his sister (whom are dead already – FYI Hei was the one who killed his own sister, which was why he cried, unable to see his own sister suffering anymore) Also in the end, Yin even cried out to him just as he was about to lose himself in the dark hole, telling him to come back and stay with her – quite a moment between the two – I EXPECTED A HUG THOUGH! DAM! THEY COULD DO AT LEAST THAT MUCH LOL!

Oh well I have to admit these pairings are quite a strong theme:
Yin X Hei – proving that dolls have emotions and will. Also the pairing is quite romantic and possible seeing as Hei views dolls as humans and cares for them (this was pointed out from the beginning of the series (when that doll went against her orders and protected him by sacrificing herself). I believed that the doll even loved him at that point. So for sure Yin loves Hei, and thank goodness they’re together in the end!

Misaki X Li/Hei – shows that humans and contractors can co-exist. To laugh and have fun together, and to even help each other in times of need. It was too bad that this relationship didn’t develop any further, especially since Misaki now knows about Li’s true identity and would even want to meet with again (too bad though since he’s probably just hiding in Tokyo or worst – he’s already gone far far away from Tokyo(just as the Hoshi-sama predicted) with Yin – and that the last vision of him was just Yin’s doing, just to relay a message to Misaki that he was fine or something) I had hoped this pairing would develop in the end seeing as they have quite a potential, but oh well, I guess it’s just open ended and that Misaki would just be chasing him till she can meet with him again.

Amber X Hei – Now this is a pairing that I had hoped would have more flashbacks and more details about them. Since Amber is very much in love with Hei, enough to do what she did for him. I admire the fact that even though she traveled through time and foresaw such events, she still managed to love him, and do those for him. I admit it was a sad parting, but I couldn’t really shed a tear, if it was Yin I wouldve, but since Amber’s character wasn’t developed enough, it wasnt as sad. If more of their past was revealed like how they became close to each other, enough to work together in the past, and even decided to run away together – then this pairing would’ve been far more stronger. It’s too bad, but in a way it was a relief or else i would’ve been pissed off that she died and wasn’t chosen by Hei.

In conclusion, I had hoped all along in the series that Yin and Hei would live together and that came true! Even though it was only open minded, it was obvious that the two are now running away and hiding together just like Kenji and that doll. Though I hope that Hei can live peacefully and happily with Yin, and hoped that they’ll have a loving relationship which is quite a possibility just like Kenji and that doll, of course that little arc was shown to emphasize Hei and Yin’s relationship.

I just had a marathon of this show and it definitely ranked as one of my top anime, and I consider as the best. Ranking second! :D First is Yu-Gi-Oh LOL no seriously!

Anyway xD There’s that leak about FMA and DTB of sequel and FMA’s was validated, so which means…:D so they say they’re ‘thinking’ about it, but heck, there’s sure to be a sequel. The question is..WHEN?!?!?!

I enjoyed DtB also. I have to agree, though, that the ending left too many questions and had a lot of dialogue. I had to watch it a couple of times before I understood it. Omni, your summary helped me understand the plot better. Thanks for that!

@Tan-Tan: LOL, Yu-Gi-Oh is my favorite series too! Well, just the Duel Monster series, though I haven’t seen GX nor 5D’s.

I’m also hoping for a 2nd season of DtB. The OVA was amusing but I was hoping that it would expand/explain the story a bit more.

As for the pairings, I liked Yin x Hei and Misaki x Hei, but from the beginning (i.e. the 1st OP) I expected Amber x Hei. Unfortunately, I ultimately believe that Yin and Hei see each other more like siblings since Yin seems much younger than Hei (10 yrs apart?). Amber was introduced too late in the series and without enough character development. Therefore, I was hoping for Misaki x Hei, but that didn’t materialize in the end. O well.

“Anonymous at 2:47 am on October 2nd, 2007
Man that makes Hei a fucking God. He has the power to make other people contractors, kill them by fucking shocking them, and when combined with shit, he can obliterate existence.”

Agreed.

I gotta admit, the title drew me in and it lived up to my expectations. Solid, and none of this mainstream anime bullshat. BONES has impressed me =)

He killed all the good guys, the contractors who fight against syndicate so that they can live a good life.

Amber is stupid for not killing Hei. She just let him walk away after he killed so much contractor. Dumb woman.

I just feel sick watching this anime. There is no justice, just an evil monster (Hei) got unpunished after committing so much crime of killing innocent contractors. I sympathize with all the contractors who got killed.

I’ve been watching this series whilst following your blog! It was very helpful for me as I agree that every single line was important to the plot!! I also feel that there needed to be more closure because I’m still unsure about what the meteor fragment does. But anyway, it was an enjoyable series overall and I loved it :)
